yea i really liked the way you wrote celestia's character in this story. it made her out to be more than just a trolling douche with no intrest in the fate of equestria. and gave her depth that had not existed before this moment

I am not sure if I have enough money to buy enough hats to adequately take them off to you about this story. I am awaiting more with baited breath. I am genuinely mad at the one major player we haven't seen yet - Empyrean. How dare he kill Celestia!

This is my new favourite fanfic. It's awesome, and everything I had hoped my own fanfic would be. It's far, far better than I can manage. One small thing though - are you sure you meant 'kueen' and not 'queen'?

This is a great story so far although I cried at the beginning of this chapterI like Rarity's power and your take on Luna. Everyone seems to make her perfect, but your characterization shows her as flawed but strong and loving of her sister. Can't wait for more!

also, do i see another epic battle scene on the horizon? 20000 words of canterlotian distruction? full blown avatar state twilight sparkle and a battle to the death for rar and her dad? with sweety belle coming to the rescue?

Really digging the story, can hardly complain about you making us wait 2 weeks when its been over a month since a couple of my favorite fics updated. Care to give a touch more detail on this upcoming comedy piece? Characters, setting, maybe even a dialogue teaser?

35355I don't think I'll give dialogue teaser, just because I honestly have no idea what I'd pick, and it would probably end up being two pages long. I will say that the story centers around the mane six as they prepare for the Summer Sun Celebration once again. Except Fluttershy is missing, so Pinkie decides to play detective as she searches for her. Dash volunteers to tame the birds in place of Fluttershy, and Applejack is dealing with a bit of an identity crisis. Hopefully it will be funny, but it's hard to tell when I don't have an audience to gauge. If nothing else, it's a nice short break from Grimdark, and I'm doing something new.

Hey AB. You sir are awesome. Out of all the fanfics I have read, yours is the only one that I absolutely recommend to any brony. I might just be some line of words on the screen, but this is the only fanfic which I take seriously. I love how you write fight scenes, I adore how you can set the mood that all hope is lost, only to grab me and tell me it's alright. If this was youtube, I would subscribe to your channel, favorite it, even make it my home page. Keep writing.

PS. I'm excited to see you trying something new. Can't wait for the first chapter.

Sweet Celestia's mane.... Rarity has taken about 9001 levels in absolute badass. the whole chapter had me almost literally on the edge of my computer chair with the epicness... I cannot express how much i am loving this story so far, definitely going on my list of my most favorite fanfics of all time*brohoof*

......................................never mess with fluttershy 'nuff saidor pinkie for that matter...or any of the mane 6 after the what Flutter said to Nyx, i kinda want to give her a hug, except i know that Nyx would probably kill me first

holycrapholycrapholycrapholycrapholycrapholycrap!!!!!! For a little while I thought you actually killed Fluttershy and then, when Pinkie was beating the ever loving crap out of Wrong!Dashie I was listening to a song called All tomorrow's parties by Johnette Napolitano and I felt it kinda fit with the sceneand then the whole chapter got 20% Cooler and my mind just exploded

It's probably getting a bit redundant on saying how much I love this fic, but I do. I love how you portray everypony, it's believable and powerful and I can easily picture everything that's going on and it leaves me wanting more. I can't wait to read the next chapter. Also, I've added this to TV Tropes' FiM Fanfic recommendations page. I hope you don't mind

I love this story and realize you probably don't care, but I noticed a little something. While you are an amazing writer, there seems to be one convention you are unfamiliar with. When someone is speaking and a paragraph ends, yet they continue speaking in the next one, there is no need for a closing quotation mark. For example, this passage:“-Not Princess Luna, Princess Celestia,” Rarity corrected, leaning in and whispering in a conspiratorial tone, her grudge seemingly forgotten. “In the middle of her throne room, while she was holding court. They failed, obviously. In any case, her assailant wore a grey cloak, and wearing the color has become a major faux pas. The entire aristocracy has to reorder their summer wardrobe.”

“Celestia had the entire thing under control in moments, of course,” Rarity continued, “Though I have heard rumors- and these are totally unvalidated, mind you- that in order to catch all the culprits she used mind magic on her assailant.”Would become:“-Not Princess Luna, Princess Celestia,” Rarity corrected, leaning in and whispering in a conspiratorial tone, her grudge seemingly forgotten. “In the middle of her throne room, while she was holding court. They failed, obviously. In any case, her assailant wore a grey cloak, and wearing the color has become a major faux pas. The entire aristocracy has to reorder their summer wardrobe.

“Celestia had the entire thing under control in moments, of course,” Rarity continued, “Though I have heard rumors- and these are totally unvalidated, mind you- that in order to catch all the culprits she used mind magic on her assailant.”This is a minor thing, but I thought you might want to know. Anyway, I really love the story, keep up the good work.

45122I do care. I absolutely care. This isn't even something I'm doing that could be construed as right or that anyone could have a disagreement about. This is objectively wrong. A friend of mine has been on my ass about this lately, too.That said, I probably won't do an editing run over the earlier chapters specifically to knock out the hanging quotes. It's just way to much effort for something I see as relatively small. If I ever need to do an editing run over them in the future (Dear Celestia I hope not, I've been over parts 1-3 exactly six times each,) I'll be sure to take them out. For now, though, My new chapters will just do things right.What? I can be lazy if I want. I'm the boss. I'm allowed.

54436It's coming. I'm actually two chapters ahead of the published fic. I just want to release the best Ponies Make War that I can, which means making everypony wait longer than I anticipated. I'd rather break my word and seem like a bad pony than release a chapter that isn't up to my standards (which grow higher every day.) I fully intend to once again settle into a regular release schedule again after part 9.
